Eliptic Projector Question

Post by Eldaren » Sun, 23. Dec 07, 09:23

Just started a new game, where can I go to buy one of these, struggling to find the gates and I hope one of these might help my orientation..
Any help appreciated.

Boron and Teladi Equipement Docks sells them. But be warned, the gates are not always close to the grid in X3, or right on the axis.
Right on commander !

Yes, the way objects are scattered around in X3, the grid can be close to useless at times, and quite hard to see.

from a navigation viewpoint, I guess it's value varies according to the size of the sector

but once installed and activated, you'll find it at the sector's centre..

- most useful for orientation when building, I imagine..

It is very useful for building stations or even a complex that hovers above or below the plane. I have trouble with anything i build from the sides of the plane as the grid only covers so much space.
